Defintely I too look forward to start a rookie pitcher while trying to win the division In b4 hitters figure out he can't really throw strikes. You know like he hasn't thrown strikes in 5 years of minors pitching.

Yep can't wait to see Redmond start game 160 with the division on the line

No need we have won 5 straight If we were falling out of the race it would make sense but since we won 5 straight this team.is clearly a contender And just think about Morrow coming back he is an ace you know. Remember that game against Tampa he struck out 17 batters Getting morrow back is like trading for an ace

The most boring trade deadline that I could remember

In the past 5 years the only team that had not competed in the AL east are the Jays. Trends tell me that this will continue Orioles have great young pitching while young allstar core players like Jones Machado Rays rotation alone can take the team to 90 wins even with poverty bats Yankees are Yankees. They will sign James Shields with a healthy Tanaka and Sabathia they will be favorites again As for the Sox I'll give you them. However traditionally they have rebounded well I think for the jays writing will already be on the wall from Bautista. He will want to go play for a team that wants to win. It wouldn't surprise me too see Bautista in a Yankees uniform some time soon. With melky walking away this will leave an offense that relies on an. Off injured Lind. Dickey and burly will be a year older. Burly looks finished Dickey is dickey. Stroman may pitch well but Sanchez has a terrible walk ratio in the minors. Jays will be lucky if he doesn't get hurt which is a high probability due to how hard he throws but even if he stays healthy best we can hope for is an Edwin Jackson type since he walks so many guys. Jays are a 4th place team next year

I blame AA he should have left some room on the $140M he was given but he has made so many stupid signings Could have left Kratz as starter and had $10M now for deadline

And yet so many people saying why improve the team our superstars are coming back They might not be back till September.

I meant to say Pillar. At the end of the day there are other options of improvement that this team desperately needs like a veteran reliever a right handed bat and another starter Colon is another option. Sooner or layer Stroman is going to hit the rookie wall. Hutchinson looks like he is already tired I don't expect the Jays to compete next year. The Yankees and Redsox will be much improved. The rays will be healthy and iny opinions Orioles have more younger talent then the Jays. Veterans will be 1 year older and it will be another 5 to 10 years before this team comes close to sniffing a playoff spot again

Lester is the kind of pitcher that this team needs. Orioles and Jays are evenly matched. However a Lester gives us a huge advantage. I wouldn't deal anyone of the mlb roster but if a deal like Norris + Millar then that's an acceptable price.

No I want them to only try to win the wild card

So if a short term rental is the difference between finishing 2 games back of the division, and winning the division, and getting a chance at the world series, That means nothing to you. I think that people need to re-examine their viewpoints. Organizations should never operate on absolute If the price for Lester is too high = understood But there is such a thing as overreaction. Playoff means something, especially when a team hasn't been to the playoffs for 20 years. Especially when its a potential shot at the World series.

I wonder where NY Rangers get all the money!

All teams have lost three games or more in this.division
